The Northern part called Ayen(Ajuran??) and sometimes NEW ARABIA. It comprehends the dominions of Brava, New Mogadixio, Adea and Adel.
 
It's a fake source.

:mjlol:You have been nailed once again.

Here's the link.

It is significant because it ties in with other sources to prove Baraawe was a republic, not under Ajuraan control. Allen says the Portuguese defeated 6,000 Tunni warriors and burned Baraawe to the ground in 1506. Welch says the King of Portugal gave the governor permission in 1585 to use the tribute money from Baraawe and Lamu to fund a ship to be used to blockade the area from Mog to Hafun. The Portuguese had a garrison on Socotra and one at Bandel, 12 miles north of Mog. They had fleets at Goa and Malindi to answer any challenge. Mir Ali Bey's second expedition was utterly destroyed after only 3 months in the Indian Ocean. Mukhtar says the Omanis led a revolt against the Portuguese that finally freed the coastal towns in 1758. This means the Portuguese controlled Baraawe and south after 1506 for more than two hundred years. Mukhtar says Baraawe was even a major Portuguese port, drawing trade from the north. According to Cassanelli, 1600-1800 were bad years for Mogadisho. With drought and rinderpest infestations in the Shabelli valley and a Portuguese blackade, most years there was little to no trade. It took the Omanis to re prime the pump.

Stop reading that falsified Wikipedia stuff! :ulyin:
